After creating a longitudinal tear in 42 one\u2010year\u2010old bovine menisci, 7 specimen groups defined by the meniscal repair device, suture, and\/or mattress technique used for meniscal repair were randomly established: (Group 1: Fiberwire\u2122 vertical mattress (VM), Group 2: Fiberwire\u2122 horizontal mattress (HM), Group 3: FasT\u2010Fix\u2122 VM, Group 4: FasT\u2010Fix\u2122 HM, Group 5: RapidLoc\u2122, Group 6: MaxFire\u2122 VM, Group 7: MaxFire\u2122 HM). After completing the repairs, the meniscal specimens were cyclically pre\u2010loaded before load to failure testing was performed. The mean load to failure for each group was: Fiberwire VM (185 \u00b1 41\u00a0N), Fiberwire HM (183 \u00b1 36\u00a0N), FasT\u2010Fix VM (125 \u00b1 8\u00a0N), FasT\u2010Fix HM (107 \u00b1 29\u00a0N), RapidLoc (70 \u00b1 12\u00a0N), MaxFire VM (145 \u00b1 44\u00a0N), MaxFire HM (139 \u00b1 50\u00a0N). An analysis of variance demonstrated a significant difference in the mean load to failure (<jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic> = 8.31 <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.01). Statistically significant differences were seen between both Fiberwire groups verses FasT\u2010Fix HM and Rapid\u2010Loc (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05). Three modes of failure were observed: suture breakage (17\/42, 40.5%), tissue failure (18\/42, 42.9%), and knot failure (7\/42, 16.7%). 2\u20100 Fiberwire\u2122 VM and HM repairs had the highest load to failure of all groups tested. The load to failure for the MaxFire\u2122 meniscal repair system is comparable to other available all\u2010inside meniscal repair systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00167-010-1188-z","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,6,8]],"date-time":"2010-06-08T11:54:13Z","timestamp":1275998053000},"page":"1594-1598","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Mechanical
